The biosynthesis of this class of proteins requires scaffold proteins like, in E. coli, NfuA. That scaffold protein transfers a group to one of these compounds with an unusual function, which is the target of the poison sodium fluoroacetate, has a homologue called 3-isopropylmalate dehydratase, and is called aconitase. A broken example of one of these compounds employs an auxiliary nickel atom to reduce carbon dioxide. One of these compounds binds ubiquinol or plastoquinol anion before shuttling the electron to cytochrome c or f; that example is Rieske protein. Often erroneously classified as members of this family include rubredoxins. Members of this family are involved in the synthesis of biotin and lipoic acid, the latter of which has two heteroatoms that originate in this family's namesake group. For 10 points, name this family of proteins, which derive its name from the type of two-
